Do not take too lightly the influence the China visa can have on the result of your adventure! For example, you will experience the unfamiliar immigration rules and practices, job application procedures, the job selection trends and the management culture.

Most visits to China are trouble-free but you should be aware of the risk of indiscriminate terrorist attacks, which could be against civilian targets, including places frequented by expatriates and foreign travelers like restaurants, hotels, clubs and shopping areas. In recent years, the Chinese authorities have carried out a number of investigations and operations against terrorist networks. You should exercise a high level of security awareness and monitor local news broadcasts and consular messages. Making local contacts quickly and seeking support from other expatriates will greatly increase your comfort and safety.
